Black chrome wheels

[Baba Ganoush]

Those wheels are choice in any finish, so that car looks perfect. I dig the finish on certain applications, especially on a car with zero chrome elsewhere. I just bought some "Anthracite" wheels with a brushed lip for a project. Not the same, but going for a similar look. They're more gun metal looking than black chrome.

No they do not.

Yes, they do.

Black

Chrome

Pick ONE.

And if you pick black, for gods sake get it with a polished lip.

They look like brake dust covered chrome imo.

Listen to these guys.

Its all personal preference man. Something different, that is for sure. i have received nothing but compliments on the wheels but of course some people dont like it.... and btw Ive never seen brake dust this shiny =) i have no problems with peeling. Its an expensive thing to do to get it done right i suppose.

Just get some chrome Cobra R's and be done with it.

Depends on the chromer.

I saw a 01 silver GT with black chrome fr500s. Looked like shiny Black wheels from far, but the closer you got the more chre luster it had. It all depends on the type of wheel too.

Heres some I snagged off of nicks FB.





I see these wheels on a daily basis, and my opinion of them hasn't changed. I think they're cool as shit and unique.

The fr500 is the wheel I'm looking at. Hell I may try is out. I really like them and no one around here that I'm aware of has any black chrome.

Did you do the center caps too, or just leave them off?

[Whiteboy]

[FoxBodyNick]

Yes i did do the center caps and they are on. I just havent taken a good picture with them on

[Stephen]

are cobra r's the same as 95 thunderbird wheels with different centercaps?

[71chevellejohn]

No, these are cobra R's.

[Baba Ganoush]

^^^yuck. I remember seeing those on EVERY mustang.

Haha thanks. They look better in person!

I too think your cobra looks badass. Nice choice, piss on the haters.
